Quote by Jennifer L. Armentrout

“How are you keeping your guest distracted in your office? With stimulating conversation and your ample charm?' His smile turned as cold as his fury. 'As I'm sure you remember, my charm is very ample.' My cheeks heated. 'I've been trying to forget your overinflated charm.' 'Was it not you who just referred to it as ample?' His eyes flashed a deep quicksilver.”

“I have never seen him sleep so deeply. Not even when he was just a babe. The slightest sound would wake him." Surprise rippled through me as the hand under mine remained relaxed and still. "You knew him then?" I asked, completely unable to picture Ash as a babe. "I knew his parents. I called them my friends, and I call Ash one of my own," he answered, head straightening.

I exclaimed. 'Especially when I'm in a home with a dead body and someone grabs me from behind without any warning!”

“And you, liessa, are very brave.' His thumb moved, sweeping over the curve of my jaw. 'But, sometimes, one can be too brave.' The dusky silkiness of his words wrapped around me. 'To the point it borders on foolishness. And you know what I've found about the foolishly brave? There's a reason they often rush to greet death instead of having the wisdom to run from it.
